Summary: Review of "The Complete Pekingese"
Review: I am a Pekingese breeder and Ms. Stannard's book lived up to my every expectation. Her writing is clear and concise. The photos of the dogs are well done, especially the grooming photos. This book shows the absolute cream of the crop of English dogs and is not to be missed by any serious Pekingese fancier. The book not only speaks about current top English dogs and kennels, but makes great reference to the great kennels of the past. There is also a chapter on North American dogs. I am sure that this book will find it's way to the bookshelves of most Pekingese breeders.

Review: I recently (as in a week ago) bought a delightful male Peke puppy named Tai, and we will be going to our first puppy match in a few days. This book has been immeasureably helpful in outlining the show process and I have gleaned much information from its pages. The detailed descriptions of champions of the past was particularly helpful, as I am now quite familiar with many of the kennel names such as Toydom, St. Aubrey-Eldson (where the famous St. Aubrey Dragonora, Westminster BIS winner in 1982, hailed from), and the author's own kennel, Shiarita. I advise anyone who is even thinking of letting this wonderful breed into your lives, to buy this book.

Review: I was needing a book about the behaviors, training tips, and how to care for my dog. This book is about the breed, where it all started, and the breeding lines. It would be good for someone wanting to show or breed their Pekingese.
